Apparently there is an update available for my phone in Norway through the official channels. Let's update and see if that solves my mobile data problems :-).

Edit: the update just failed because of insufficient battery level, although the phone is plugged in and the battery is at 100% :-/
[LG Optimus 2x] vitaminxero:
I have the wdb. I just can't extract it and get anything meaningful out of it. My tool say something about it not being made to run on Windows -_- I don't actually know 100% what I'm doing but I always think to give it a shot to learn.
[LG Optimus 2x] McGiverGim:
Have you tried it? What is the baseband of this version?

Here the Downloadlink for Greek V10D 0725 Version : http://www.multiupload.com/G6A3TDDSI3

Enjoy & have Fun
[LG Optimus 2x] KeePeeR26:
In Italy is officially out right now and can be made by LG pc suite ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] McGiverGim:
Maybe a global update?

This version has appeared in Greece, Euro Open (Switzerland) and Italy since now...
[LG Optimus 2x] ULJ:
The V10D update is released as Euro Open. So it should be accessible via LG Mobile Update tool in every European country!
[LG Optimus 2x] Marsou77:
Not in France...
[LG Optimus 2x] ULJ:
As Euro Open V10D is accessible in France. As "Fra" (France) V10C is still the newest.

Just take a look on LG's servers with LG Mobile Update tool...
[LG Optimus 2x] Marsou77:

Still V10C with 405 Baseband

Any Idea ?
[LG Optimus 2x] McGiverGim:
It is only for Euro Open in France, maybe your phone is France Open but not Euro Open ;-)
[LG Optimus 2x] ULJ:
In LG Mobile Update Tool, select "Customer Support", select "Supporting Models". There you can see that newest Euro Open firmware is V10D but newest France firmware is V10C.
[LG Optimus 2x] Marsou77:
Oh, thank you...

How can we have an Euro Open ?
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
lg update tool shows 10d but NLD shows 10c and ril shows euro open and i still cannot update.
[LG Optimus 2x] Marsou77:
LG Update checks the BaseBand. Maybe it is because you are on a newer BaseBand than normal
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
bb is 622 euro open

so now we get 7XX so LG tool should be able to find the update and use it.... no?
[LG Optimus 2x] Marsou77:
No... it depend if your phone is localized or not. In France i'm stuck at BB 405 and V10C beacause my phone is FRA and not Euro Open
[LG Optimus 2x] wapz:
I bought my phone directly in a store in The Netherlands in the first week it was available (first batch) and the LG mobile update tool says my phone is from Ireland. WTF?
[LG Optimus 2x] ilos:
that depends on the provider too... ( SFR get V10E in lg update tool )
[LG Optimus 2x] Marsou77:
I bought this phone via Amazon, so it is not branded :)
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
Mine is euro open according to lg ril app
[LG Optimus 2x] ilos:
i got it from bouygues and is not brandred too :)
[LG Optimus 2x] XT69:
does anyone have a changelog for this one? can the early adopters tell the difference between 622 and this one? :)
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
First thing that hit me was significantly longer lock-times for GPS than on 10c. In fact, GPS Test hasn't locked yet, 3 minutes after I started testing. In 10C, from a cold boot, the longest was approx 30 secs, usually locked within 10 secs.

::Trym
[LG Optimus 2x] Marsou77:
Fix within 5 seconds cold ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] ogistoev:
Something's wrong with this update. With LG update tool everything went smooth but after finishing update got boot loop. Manually updated with "greek" kdz - and - wow 10D with 725 but on a long call more than 15 min. phone rebooted - was pretty hot. Finally tried with ItalianUpdate.zip from Hell_97 but got no data form wi-fi or carrier. Going back to 10C with new baseband seems ok for now.
[LG Optimus 2x] XT69:
so, downloaded the euro open v10D mentioned as swedish, the kdz update went through successfully, now it seems to be working great :) just rooted it, and going through the titanium backup restore :)

so far it seems a decent update for me, the gallery pinch zooming bug is fixed, it was so annoying :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Marsou77:
Same for me for the boot loop, but it is because the KDZ don't erase any data it seem... so just perform a full wipe and it's done.
[LG Optimus 2x] flyingdog77:
guys, know I am stupid. how do you flash the KDZ? I think it is the smoothest solution. I dowloaded V10D_00.kdz from lg, hope it is the euro open one...
[LG Optimus 2x] XT69:
see post #32 here: http://android.modaco.com/topic/339219-lg-p970-optimus-black-clockworkmod/page__st__20__p__1708746#entry1708746

only difference is that you are gonna use the kdz you just downloaded, and volume down instead of volume up in the tutorial :) I flashed it the same way, and it's just great :)
[LG Optimus 2x] kruppin:
Someone has released the 0725 baseband on modaco if anyone is intrested! It's less hassle then deal with the kdz. :p Anyway here is the link: http://android.modaco.com/topic/344840-baseband-725-9-aug-fls-files-for-smartflash/

And don't forget to do a backup in CWM first, and restore it after install. And after that you DL the RIL through LG Get RIL app. The baseband is better with both gps lock and sound quality for me. (had 622 before) Can't comment on battery just yet. GLHF! :)
[LG Optimus 2x] t3alc:
The update contains more than a new BB, so i would recomend to do a ordanary update.
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
which restore should i perform after the new BB?

if i restore data then i get back to BB 0622 so which one should i chose?
[LG Optimus 2x] lkhz:
Anyone Recommend me to install BB 725 on Fear Kill 12.4 ?
[LG Optimus 2x] ULJ:
I restored /data and /cache.

Totally wrong!
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
i restored data with cwm and i got all the old stuff back and now i run lg ril and it says that he is o.k which it cannot be since i flashed the new BB and lg ril still shows 0622 and accurate.... so i guess i need to restore /data but very strange that it restores all of the phone.

i also double checked and actually started the phone and went to about phone and i saw 725 so i know for sure that the smartflash worked....

so what now?
[LG Optimus 2x] ULJ:
I am not quite sure what you have done. But you should only restore /data in CWM. You can do that under Backup and restore --> advanced restore.

The RIL file is stored in /system so it will be that from the ROM. If you have flashed with V10D then the RIL file is version 725.
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
i downloaded only the BB 725

1. flashed all 4 files from the big to small size (after each flash i placed the phone back to s/W mode)

2. after flash i started the phone regularly and checked BB it was 725, i also had to go though the "new phone wizard"

3. i restarted the phone jumped into CWM (which was available and i didn't have the need to re-install)

4. i did adv. restore chose the last backup and restored only the data directory.

5. after restart i opened the LG ril app and it says 0622 accurate which means that i reversed to 0622? no? because the ril fits the BB .....

what am i missing here?

i done this procedure 3 times with different BB in the past and it was fine....

maybe is the BB source files? (i took the Italian with 4 files)
[LG Optimus 2x] Harsh:
in you restore full, as BB are not in backups.

In CWM > Backup and restore > restore.

Here after this your ril file will be replaced with your original ril you had before flash.

Then use LG GetRIL app by sibbor and get whatever ril you want.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
What happened here is you updated the baseband without updating the RIL too, nothing major.
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
so i should do full restore? it dosent sound logic....this will restore everything no?
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
i can just dump the new ril its not a problem

but why lg ril app shows that its accurate?

dumped the new ril now i get version 0725 (10d - Europe open)

to bad i cannot go into about phone and check the BB since i get F.C every time (wiped cache and stuff)
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
That's a pain. You could try clearing the data for the settings.
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
actually i just solved it and i was going to post it

i froze the app com.lge.omadmclient 1.0.0

if you freeze this one u will get F.C all the time when going to about phone.
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
me again :-)

since everyone is sharing their experiance with the new BB/RIL i thought that i will share as well.

1. updated new BB to 725 from the forum (4 fls files)

2. updated RIL with CWM

thoughts.

1. reception is much much better sitting in the same place in my office i get now 4 lines with HSPA in comparison to 1-2 lines over GPRS with 0622

2. wifi seems to work much better now, before hand i had loads of disconnects and seeing status "disabled" on APs with WPA2/Ent now it looks great. i can actually hop between the APs in the company and its works fine.

3. call quality is simply the best now. before hand it was o.keish now its really good

4. i am running stock v10c in NL on KPN

5. LG ril app seems to show all the time that the ril is consistent with the BB although i was running at the begging 0725 BB with RIL 0622... so its a bit strange...

that's about it.
[LG Optimus 2x] lkhz:
Will current basband get backup if i do CWM backup ? and can i restore it back ?
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
No.

BB will stay till u smartflash another BB. What cwm backup is your partitions in your phone.

RIL resides in /system hence will be part of your backup.
[LG Optimus 2x] lkhz:
What about Battery saving ?
[LG Optimus 2x] kruppin:
That's weird! But maybe the program can't read baseband if settings FC, as it did for you, and therefore thinks you still got 0622. Then you unfroze that thing and then it was working. Or, it got a bug so it doesn't check what baseband you're running on every start, but that seems unlikely. :p
[LG Optimus 2x] kruppin:
Hard to comment on that just yet, since it hasn't been avalible for that long. :p And also I have just done a full charge and then calibrated, so waiting to do one more charge cycle, so maybe there readings aren't that correct.

Anyway, 3,5h off charger and got 72% left. Doesn't feel that good, but then I've made a 62min call, had wifi and BT on since i took it off charger and sms/internet 25min.. But like I said, have just removed the batterystats.

I'm running Fr19 with stock kernel, and ofc 0725 BB.
[LG Optimus 2x] jay_snake:
Last night after flash to 0725; charged it to 100% and went to sleep. When I woke up about 7 hours later it was at 97% :D
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
Currently iam on less than 10% for the last 3 hours with light usage so I guess for start its o.k but defenetlly Nestor test over days to come
[LG Optimus 2x] ice_v88:
Guys I'm a bit confused.

I just downloaded the v10d (over 600mb) .rar file. It contains an *.fls part (8mb cca) and a *.bin part (800mb cca), from this page, under the GREECE, ITALY section.

Now first of, I'm pretty sure this firmware does not contain the 0725 BB (has the 0625 instead, right?), but can I flash the 0725 BB over it after I update the firmware? And what about the RIL version? which one do I keep?

And second, the Update Procedure link in that firmware page, redirects to a BASEBAND update procedure. So, updating firmware procedure is identical to baseband update procedure? :confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] Marsou77:
The BB is the .fls and it is BB 725 and BB 625 doesn't exist anymore
[Thunderbolt General] arh2o:

[Thunderbolt General] c_live_lee:
Ok, so I got a replacement bolt from FedEx yesterday and almost immediately went to the rooting process. I used Revolutionary for S-Off and I must say it couldn't have been easier. I'm quite pleased with the results on that front. BUT...

Now, no one can hear me when I'm on a call with them and, after trying different radios. I think it's time to return to stock so, I can troubleshoot some more and, possibly, send it back as defective (which I'm thinking was the case from the get-go). I wish I had the forethought to test the phone prior to rooting.

So, my question is, Does ANYONE know how to get S-On after Revolutionary?! I'm starting to get uneasy. Never had this problem before.
[Thunderbolt General] JBO1018:
Ok well first to alleviate your concerns it is possible. My guess is that they just haven't released their s-on tool yet. You can do it yourself but YOU MUST BE VERY CAREFUL. This thread's OP explains the process. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1186022 HOWEVER you will need a few things first. ADB and fastboot installed and working along with knowledge of how to use them. Plus you will need the enghboot.nbo file extracted from the exploits.zip located in JCase's original root tutorial. This is a download link for the exploits.zip file. ~~> http://www.multiupload.com/K4BZ22SIT5

Unzipped that file to find the enghboot.nbo. IMPORTANT!!! CHECK THE MD5 SUM OF THE EXTRACTED ENGHBOOT.NBO FILE!!!!! It should be this ~>

"6991368ee2deaf182048a3ed9d3c0fcb"

Once you follow the directions from the first link you will still be rooted with s-off but now you can follow the directions in the OP of this thread to get back to stock unrooted s-on. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1009423

Just follow directions for rooted users. Be sure to flash the no_hboot_MR1 FIRST. THEN flash the s-on hboot.

Can someone help me, please? Trying to follow the instruction on rooting with Revolutionary. How do I know if I should pick HBOOT version 1.04 or 1.05. Any advantage of choosing one over the other?

Thank you very much!

Edit: I think, I figured it out, once I run revolutionary.exe, there is a note saying that I am running mecha-1.04.0000, so I assume that should be my HBOOT version :)
[Thunderbolt General] c_live_lee:
Most likely, you're right, I would assume. For future reference though, it will state your HBoot version at the top of the screen when you boot the phone into HBoot (volume down while pressing power). Thought I would let you know in case it could come in handy some time down the road. :)
[Thunderbolt General] chatmaster20:
Sorry, for being such a noob, but I have another question. I followed all the instructions, it asked me if I wanted to download CloclworkMod Recovery, I said yes and pressed enter. A minute or so later, the terminal window closed by itself and my phone is in the white screen mode.

I am hoping someone can help me. It's probably just a rookie mistake but..

I ran Revolutionary, seemed to work flawless. Phone is working, it says "S-Off", clockwork recovery is installed, I ran a backup without issue. However, I can't seem to gain root access.

I installed superuser from the market but I can't run the binary update. I also downloaded busybox but since I do not have root access, I can't do anything. Do I need to fix permissions in Rom manager?
[Thunderbolt General] c_live_lee:
Go to this page and grab the latest superuser zip file and flash it in clockwork recovery. :)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=682828

I don't believe you can simply install it from within the OS before you've flashed it and gained root access first. After that, you can use the Superuser app from the market, if and when it is needed.
[Thunderbolt General] jbh00jh:
You have to flash the su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip to get root.

Should be in the Revolutionary package.

[Thunderbolt General] Addicted2Droid:
Thanks, going to try it now. Rom manager says I don't even have clockwork installed but how did I make the backup? I thought that was clockwork
[Thunderbolt General] c_live_lee:
Never mind what ROM manager says at the moment. You do not yet have root. If you made a backup through the nice blue Revolutionary recovery, you DO have clockwork mod and should have no trouble flashing any of the Superusers me or the other dude steered you toward.

From the powered off state, hold the DOWN VOLUME button and the POWER button down at the same time until you boot into the bootloader. From there, select recovery. This will take you to clockwork.
[Thunderbolt General] chatmaster20:
First of all, thank you so much for you help. I didn't get back to your reply right away, and just played with my phone. I restarted it again manually, ran revolutionary.exe one more time, it gave me a message sayign that device is already S-OFF. Do you want to Download and flash ClockworkMod reovery, I said yes. It showed it downloading, said success or something to that nature, closed the screen and sent my phone back to that white screen I mentioned before. So, here is my question. Is my phone rooted? How do I know that it is rooted and it just didn't take cwm? And if it told me that it was successful with cwm, how can I check that it is on there?

I read it somewhere on the forum that I should download and install ROM Manager app and when I ran it, it gave me a message that I must root my phone for ROM Manager and no superuser was found at the system level and I should google on how root my phone.

So, I guess, how do I know it is rooted? Sorry, I feel really lost right now.
[Thunderbolt General] Addicted2Droid:
I flashed the superuser in the link provided. Said it was successful. I am able to mount as R/O or R/W in Root Explorer. I just tried a screen capture app and it worked so I guess I'm rooted.

It's been a while since I messed with my incredible so I'm a little foggy on things. So now I guess the question is, can I safely flash any rom? I'd like to flash a gingerbread rom but if I do that, do they typically come prepackaged with the radio or do I have to flash seperately? What are some of the better, battery efficient roms without gingerbread?
[Thunderbolt General] Addicted2Droid:
chatmaster, take the others advice that they gave me. Same exact thing happened and flashing the superuser worked.

As for everyone else. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! I knew I could count on this forum for help!
